High Blood Pressure

About Hypertension

Dr. Kaufmann discusses Weight Loss and Hypertension (high blood pressure). High Blood Pressure is known as the "silent killer" because it has few symptoms. There are medications to help control hypertension, and the condition can be helped by losing weight. Take in fewer calories than you burn. To help weight loss, take the stairs, park further from your home or office, control portion sizes, and read labels.
